A Nice and Unique Peanuts Book

Ballantine Books have published several Peanuts books over the past 5 years or so. Several have chronicled strips published in a given year (1995 through 1999) while their most recent efforts have focused on themes (Halloween-related strips, baseball-related strips with another book based on camp-related strips coming out next year). This book deals with strips that have no dialogue in them, which was a format used by Schulz throughout the strip's nearly 50 year run. It is amazing how Schulz could make a point or garner a small chuckle just through the actions of his characters without nary a word spoken. This is primarily done with his strips with the animal characters (Snoopy, Woodstock and Spike), but it actually to me is more effective with his human characters. I will say one thing. The book can be read through pretty quick with all that reading!
